Looks like you guys had a good time. Wish I could have made it. Hope to see all/some of you next week at Lime Rock.

Who owns the TI Grey 8 with the MS front end? Is it Greenblurrs? I really want the MS front but not a big fan of side skirts, didn't know if it looks goofy without them. From what I can see that one looks nice as hell. but I'd probably have to see it in person. It doesn't look...unbalanced?

In my opionion, no. Whenever I see it it looks amazing. Just make sure you have either stock wheels with lowering springs/coil overs, or 19' wheels or something pretty. Plus I hate front mud guards >:o

That's another thing I was considering. I don't really want to lower the car, seeing as I've always had bad luck with potholes and whatnot. And also in the winter..this car has little enough ground clearance as it is. That combined with the even lower MS front would be disastrous I think. You think it would look goofy on stock springs?

Unless you had 19's like my buddy Brian. (The one with the MS front and the 19's..the red one) that looks perfect.

I was saying the same thing weeks ago. I think the MS front looks awesome when viewing directly in front, but is slightly unbalanced since it's much larger bulk and hangs lower in the front with no side skirts to continue the bottom line.

Just the designer in me likes things perfectly matched. (and I love front splash guards )

Ouch. Yup, plans are in the works for our Fall run. Something a bit different this time and hopefully with Mazda sponsorship.

damn...

So yeah I was without comp access for a while, and missed the posting of this run.... I grew up on the cape (actually right down the street from your planned destination kream and cone actually worked there one summer) and always look for a reason to make the 400 mile trip from dirty jersey... Here's to hoping that I can make the Fall trip when you get it together
